7363 AP configuration.

[nikki_jones_666]

7363 AP configuration. I've got a 7363 AP but when I access it via http the configuration options menu is not available, it seems to be locked. Consequently I cannot configure the wireless setting etc as I want. The preconfigured wireless setting seem to be working but I want to change paramets I cannot. Is there a cli command to unlock this so all menus are visible via http. Hard reset is not deaulting to standard password and IP, the AP just stays on DHCP. Thanks

Hi Nikki,

I think your 7363 is configured to be managed by either ZD/vSZ/SZ/SCG.

if you login to the AP via HTTP you should get a message almost at the bottom saying this AP is managed by an controller.

If it gives that message, then you need to change the configuration you want via the controller.

If not, please put a page of what you see in the forum

Thanks Martin, I'll get a picture uploaded asap

However, if the AP was managed by a ZD at some stage but is now running "stand alone", should I not be able to access all features and should hard reset not clear back to default IP and password. The only way I can access this is to let it boot with DHCP server access, figure out the IP assigned to it and them http to it and even when I manages to do that and tell it to do a factory reset it doesn't.

Regards

One other quick question related to AP's. I have 5 AP's to setup. I can wire each one, I don't need to have mesh setup. Is it still beneficial to have a ZD to manage them or is there no real benefit if they are wired.

Thanks

Hi Nikki,

If they are set to managed, you cannot use them as standalone right now.

You need to do a factory reset of the AP and then you can configure everything (depending on the software version).

Its best to run 100.x.x.x version for standalone.
It can be downloaded from the support portal.

To manage multiple APs it makes more sense to use a controller.

Kind regards
Martin
